Articles

Articles are Context Center’s internal knowledge base: long-form pages your team writes, organizes, and maintains for people. Use them for durable, structured knowledge that’s worth maintaining as a page, such as data governance policies, classification standards, incident playbooks, or internal API documentation.

​

Create an Article

1. From the left sidebar, navigate to Context Center > Articles.
2. Click Create and choose:
   • Article: Opens a blank page in the rich text editor. Give it a title and start writing. Slash commands, text formatting, and nested lists are all supported.
   • Quick Link: Bookmarks an external URL as an article instead of writing new content. Add a title, description, the target URL, and tags.
   

Articles autosave as you type. There’s no separate publish step.

​

View and Manage Articles

The Articles list page helps you find and browse existing articles:

• A search bar to look up articles by title.
• A left-hand hierarchy panel that organizes articles into folders, so related articles, for example, everything under a “Compliance” or “Engineering” folder, stay grouped together.
• A card for each article, showing its title, a short description (or “No description” if none is set), its last-edited time, its owner, its domain, and any tags applied to it.
• A right-hand panel with two sections:
  • Bookmarks: Shows the articles you’ve bookmarked.
  • Recently Viewed: The articles you opened most recently, newest first.

Opening an article takes you to its detail page, which includes:

• Header information: The article’s domain and owner, each shown as a chip you can edit inline by clicking the pencil icon next to it. When editors are assigned, an Editor list appears alongside them.
• Save status and version: A Saved indicator confirms your latest edit was captured automatically, and a version number, for example 0.2, increases each time the article is updated, so you can track how much it’s changed over time.
• Status badge: If the article has an open review request, a badge such as In Review appears next to its title.
• Toolbar actions, next to the Saved indicator:
  • Feedback: Give a thumbs up or thumbs down on the article.
  • Conversation: Open a comment thread on the article.
  • Favorite: Bookmark the article so it’s easy to find again later.
  • Copy link: Use the copy icon to copy the article URL.
  • Delete: Open the ⋮ menu and select Delete to remove the article.
• Content and Activity Feeds & Tasks tabs:
  • Content is the article body itself, where you write and edit using the rich text editor.
  • Activity Feeds & Tasks tracks everything that’s happened on the article, split into two views:
    • All: A chronological feed of every change, showing who created or updated the article, when, and a short description of what changed. React to an entry with an emoji, or reply to start a thread on it.
    • Tasks: Request-driven items on the article, such as an open review request, tracked separately from the general activity feed.
    
    • Selecting an entry opens its details on the right, along with a Comments panel where you can add a comment and use @mention to tag a teammate.
• Properties panel: Attach Data Products, Reviewers, Tags, a Glossary Term, related Data Assets, or Attachments to the article, each with its own + button.

Quick Links, unlike written articles, show Edit and Delete icons directly on their card in the list, since there’s no separate detail page to open.

​

Filter and Sort Articles

A toolbar above the article cards narrows the list and changes its order. It’s available from release 2.1.

​

Filter Articles

Use the Domains, Owners, Tag, and Tier dropdowns to show only the articles that match:

• Domains: Articles that belong to the selected domains.
• Owners: Articles owned by the selected users or teams.
• Tag: Articles that have the selected tags.
• Tier: Articles that have the selected tiers.

Each dropdown lists only values that are applied to at least one article. Selecting values in more than one dropdown shows only the articles that match all of them. To remove every filter at once, click Clear All. This link appears only while at least one filter is active.

​

Sort Articles

Use the sort dropdown to change the order of the cards. The dropdown shows the current sort option. Select one of the following options:

• Recently updated: Shows the most recently edited articles first. This is the default.
• Alphabetical: Shows articles in A to Z order by title.
• Publication date: Shows the most recently published articles first.
• Popularity: Shows the most voted articles first.
